Road Trip: Day 9

Starting: Tacoma, WA
Ending: Port Angeles, WA
Distance Traveled: 106 miles

Day 9 Goal: Olympic National Park, maintain sanity while continuing to drive and change hotels each night

Gift Cards Used: AMEX

The constant traveling is getting to me. It's fun and interesting to experience a new town nearly every night, but it's also tiring. Admittedly, I'm looking forward to finally settling in somewhere soon.

It was still a good day, though!

Highlights

I had my phone out to take a photo of the 'Welcome to Port Angeles' sign, but was cut-off by an SUV with a Twilight sticker. It seemed appropriate.



Olympic National Park
Factoring in the wind chill, it was 38 degrees with a threat of thunderstorms. So I went hiking.





 Ranger Jan gave us a tour of the area surrounding the Hurricane Ridge Visitor Center


This evening I made friends at a gastro pub and plotted the next two day's activities with the help of some locals. Everyone had an opinion - we'll see which direction things take me!
